Episcopal congratulates senior Lila Ranalli who has been named a National Merit Scholarship Semifinalist. 

The National Merit Scholarship Program is an academic competition for recognition and scholarships. High school students enter the National Merit Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT) and by meeting published program entry and participation requirements. 

More than 1.2 million juniors from about 20,000 high schools entered the 2027 National Merit Scholarship Program, and less than one percent are named semifinalists. Semifinalists must fulfill several requirements to advance to the finalist level of the competition, and the finalists are announced in the winter and scholarships awarded in the spring.

Congratulations, Lila!
